Shifting to bullpen Houck will be available out of the bullpen as early as Saturday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Houck made his previous start Wednesday and gave up three runs on three hits with seven strikeouts and four walks over 4.1 innings, and he'll move to a relief role since the Red Sox won't require a fifth starter since Oct. 2, which is the penultimate game of the regular season. The 25-year-old has a 3.75 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 70:16 K:BB across 57.2 major-league innings this season, and he figures to play a significant role for Boston down the stretch, even though he's not expected to start.

Falls to 0-4 Houck (0-4) allowed four runs (three earned) on four hits and three walks over 3.2 innings Friday, striking out one batter and taking a loss against the White Sox.

Impact Most of the damage against Houck came in the third inning when he served up a three-run blast to Jose Abreu. He then allowed an RBI single to Luis Robert in the fourth before exiting the contest. The right-handed rookie had allowed three or fewer runs in each of his previous four outings and watched his season ERA climb to 3.54 after Friday's start. Houck is lined up to start in Seattle next week.

Stellar through five Houck allowed three hits with no walks and seven strikeouts through five scoreless innings, taking a no-decision in Saturday's 4-3 win over Cleveland.

Impact The Cleveland scouting department has to be doing a double-take right now. After showing no semblance of command against Cleveland just six days ago (four walks issued, three hit batters), Houck was rock solid for the Red Sox through five innings on Saturday, throwing 69 percent of his pitches for strikes and conceding just a pair of singles and a double. The 25-year-old's velocity remained with him for the entire outing, as he retired the last nine batters he faced and hit 95 mph with his final pitch of the day. He is slated to pitch next Friday against the White Sox.

Wild in no-decision Houck took a no-decision versus Cleveland on Sunday. He allowed three runs on one hit, four walks and three hit batters while striking out three over 5.1 innings.

Impact Usually, a one-hit outing is outstanding for a starter, but Houck put a lot of traffic on the basepaths without Cleveland having to do much. He still kept the home team off the board for five innings before a sloppy sixth. The 25-year-old saw his ERA rise slightly to 3.63 with a 1.21 WHIP and 55:12 K:BB across 44.2 innings. Since he had walked just eight batters through his first 10 appearances this year, it's safe to assume Sunday's start was a clear outlier. He lines up for a home rematch versus Cleveland next weekend.

Works only 4.2 frames Houck allowed three earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out six across 4.2 innings Tuesday against the Twins. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Houck was recalled from Triple-A Worcester for the start, but his most recent outing in any professional game came with the Red Sox on Aug. 17. He wasn't particularly sharp, as he required 92 pitches to retire 14 batters and began only 11 of the 22 hitters he faced with a strike. Houck is expected to stick in the rotation moving forward, and the consistency in his role could help him work deeper into games as he's worked five innings only once in eight starts on the campaign. Houck has delivered high quality innings to this point, maintaining a 3.43 ERA with a 52:8 K:BB across 39.1 frames.
